With individual sections dating from the 1870s, the S-Bahn came into
existence in 1924. It was formed as the network of suburban commuter
railways running into Berlin was converted from steam operation to a
third-rail electric railway. The resulting network was primarily
above-ground but with some subsurface tunnels.

Services on the Berlin
S-Bahn were at first provided by the German national railway, the
Deutsche Reichsbahn. Electrification of the existing suburban lines was
completed around 1929, and thoughts turned to a new project: a tunnel
that would join two spur lines that protruded into the city centre from
the north and south. This tunnel, to be known as the Nord Süd Bahn, was
a prestige project for the Nazis, and was opened in two sections. The
first, from the north to Unter den Linden, opened in time for the 1936
Berlin Olympics; the final section, via Potsdamer Platz, opened the
month after the Second World War began, in October 1939

The Prussian state railways' Class P 10 were 2-8-2 "Mikado" type
passenger-hauling steam locomotives built for hauling heavy express
trains in the hilly and mountainous terrain of the Mittelgebirge. They
were the last Prussian passenger train steam locomotives to be developed
in Prussia before the state railways were merged into the Deutsche
Reichsbahn (German Imperial Railway), who eventually designated them as
DRG Class 39.

The design by Borsig, under the supervision of chief engineer August
Meister, was ready in 1919 but, due to material shortages, no
locomotives were produced until 1922. They were three-cylinder
locomotives, all cylinders driving the second coupled axle. Three sets
of Walschaerts valve gear were used, the one for the inside cylinder
being mainly located inside the frame, but driven from the same
eccentric crank as the valve gear on the left-hand side; two eccentric
rods of different lengths being attached to the same crank.
The vehicles were originally equipped with Prussian 2'2' T 31,5 tenders.
The Deutsche Bundesbahn fitted many of the surviving examples with Witte
smoke deflectors and 2'2' T 34 tenders. The last three engines were
stabled in Stuttgart and taken out of service in 1967.

The Pt 2 / 3 of the Royal Bavarian State Railways were two-cylinder
steam tank engines for light passenger trains. They were manufactured by
Krauss 1909-1915. With its characteristic shape with the great distance
between the barrel axis and the under the combustion chamber two driving
axles, they have the upper hand against comparable type Pt 2 / 4 and
were able, after removing the initial deployment requirements still be
used to the years 1960 on the German sidelines.

A total of 97 locs were made in three series with only slightly
difference . Until 1937, 50 machines were equipped with Bissel-axis
(axis of classification changes 1'b 1B). The distance between the
leading axle shafts and the other changed from 4000 mm to 4050 mm in the
last six locs. This resulted in an affordable, economically sensible
lightweight machine that is ideal in use.

The Deutsche Reichsbahn Gesellschaft listed 78 engines
of the Prussian T 8 as the new series 89.0 in the final reclassification
plan of 1925. The operational area of the engines had in the meantime
changed significantly and was now mainly outside the Prussian provinces.
The strongholds were now the divisions of Dresden and Stuttgart, whereas
only a few locomotives of the Altona and Hanover divisions were still in
service in the ports of Bremen and Hamburg. The Dresden locomotives were
spread all over Saxony, whereas T 8 engines could be seen in Württemberg
in Friedrichshafen, Aulendorf and Freudenstadt.
The onset of the global economic crises and the numerous engines
purchased at the end of the war soon made the BR 89.0 dispensable.
Some engines went to private and works railways, the rest were
decommissioned and scrapped. As a result of the nationalisation of the
Mecklenburgischer Friedrich Wilhelm Eisenbahn und Lokalbahn AG, however,
four locomotives returned to the stock of the state railway now known as
DRB at the end of the 1930s.

The series was a 89.0 tank locomotive and freight train
locomotive unit of the German Railways. She was the smallest unit of
locomotives, which was provided by the state railway in service. While
the operating numbers 89001-89003 were delivered as "Naßdampfmaschinen"
as were the other seven steam locomotives "heissdampf locs. Since no
Prussian T 8 (89001-078) excists in the portfolio of the German railways
anymore, could this number range be used for a second time.
From the 10 machines came after the Second World War five for the Polish
State Railways (Polskie Koleje Państwowe) and five for the German State
Railways.

The last locomotive of this series,89 008 was in 1968 in the Bw Dresden-Altstadt
put out of service and was retained for the Transport Museum, Dresden as

The Deutsche Reichsbahn took over 4
class H saturated steam locomotives and 17 class Hh
superheated steam locomotives. They were incorporated in
the fleet as 57 301 to 304 and 57 401 to 417. They
remained with the State Railway Directorate in
Stuttgart, but were soon replaced by more powerful
machines on their regular route and then distributed to
other areas.
In 1925 these locomotives were with the Deutsche

Freudenstadt and Heilbronn. Due to the economic crisis
at the end of the twenties, these locomotives were then
taken out of service and in 1935 the last one was

In the search for a new, fast, goods train locomotive, the Deutsche
Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG) in 1934 was attracted by the proposal from
the Berliner Maschinenbau (BMAG, formerly Louis Schwartzkopff) for a
2-8-2 (1'D1'h2) engine.

From October 1938, the first full-scale production Class 41 locomotives
were ordered by the now renamed (since February 1937) Deutsche
Reichsbahn (DRB). All the well-known locomotive manufacturers in Germany
participated in the building of the locomotives, including BMAG, Borsig,
Maschinenfabrik Esslingen, Henschel & Sohn, Arnold Jung Lokomotivfabrik,
Krauss-Maffei, Krupp, Orenstein & Koppel and Schichau.

After the Second World War, 216 engines went into the Deutsche
Bundesbahn fleet and 122 were left in the hands of the DR in East
Germany. There is evidence that, in addition, 22 locomotives were left
in the former Reichsbahn railway division of Breslau in Poland and later
incorporated into the Polish State Railways

Because the boiler of these engines suffered from metal fatigue, they
began to be repaired in the 1950s. Between 1957 and 1961, 107 vehicles
were fitted with fully welded boilers, like those installed on the Class
03.10. In addition the front part of the frame and the running plate
were changed. Forty examples were converted to oil-firing with heavy
oil.
From 1968, these were designated as Class 042.

In the development of the Reichsbahn were the locomotives of various
private railway companies merged into series called "Baureihe. The
establishment of the DRG several companies had already worked together
to develop new locomotives. When the companies were given a number
according to the customs of the society. By combining these locomotives
in a series was often a subcategory made that indicated the origin of
the locomotive.
This machine was a further development of the P8 was designed for
hauling fast passenger trains. The example of the locomotive by Roco was
released was originally with the number 17 1137 by the Prussian State
Railways (KPEV) commissioned by the Henschel locomotive factory. This
series would get the designation S10.1. The order was made in 1911, and
this while the order of the first set of locomotives to Schwartzkopff
still ongoing. Of the first set of 202 locomotives were built, the
Lübeck-Büchener Eisenbahn got 5 locomotives, although it was a slightly
lighter version. The second series were ordered 135 copies which were

The Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft's BR 01 steam locomotives were the
first standardised (Einheitsdampflokomotive) steam express passenger
locomotives built by the unified German railway system. They were of
4-6-2 "Pacific" wheel arrangement in the Whyte notation, or 2'C1' in the
UIC classification. The idea of standardisation was that it would reduce
maintenance costs; i.e. if a BR 01 whose engine shop was in, say, Berlin
broke down in Dresden, instead of having to ship the necessary part from
Berlin and take the locomotive out of service, a part from the Dresden
shop could be used as all of the engines, parts, and workings were
exactly the same and produced nationwide. Thus it was a "standard"
product for engine shops.The firms of AEG and Borsig, who were the main
manufacturers of these engines, together with Henschel, Hohenzollern,
Krupp and BMAG previously Schwartzkopff, delivered a total of 231
examples of this Einheitsdampflokomotive between 1926 and 1938 for the
fast passenger services of the Deutsche Reichsbahn. Even in the 1930s
the employment of Class 01s was limited to the relatively few routes
that had already been modified to take a 20 ton axle load. The

Class 01s were equipped with 2'2 T 30, 2'2' T 32 or 2'2' T 34 tenders.
Class 01 locomotives remained in service with the Deutsche Bundesbahn
until 1973. In the DR, they were still working up to the early 1980s,
largely in their original state with large smoke deflectors. They were
legendary in their last years for hauling the D-Zug services on the
Berlin-Dresden route up to autumn 1977. Only on the appearance of the
large, Soviet DR Class 132 diesel locomotives were the almost 50
year-old express train locomotives of Class 01 finally forced out of

The steam engine BR 10 is obvious the result of wrong expectations. The
railways were changing in a fast way in the fifties and sixties. At the
beginning of the fifties the railway directors thought for example that
due to rising of the number of express trains the need for fast express
train steam engines was also rising. New steam engines had to replace
the old DRG steam engine types. But due to the electrifying of the
mainlines and new modern diesel locomotives, the need for steam engines
was go down quickly. These developments were not predictable at the
beginning of the fifties.

The express train steam engines of the series BR 10 were the first (and
also the last) new steam engines built by the Deutsche Bundesbahn. The
BR 10 had to replace the series BR 01.10 and BR 03.10. They wanted to
replace these steam engines by a powerful and lightweight 1'C1'h2 steam
engine.

In 1950 the HVB in Offenbach instructed the Eisenbahnzentralamt (EZA) in
Göttingen to design a new steam engine. They had to comply with an exact
performance program which was laid down. For example they required that
the locomotive had an axle load of 20 ton and a maximum speed of 130
km/u.

The series 3:10 was a development of the 03 series, similar to the
locomotives of Class 01.10, which emerged from the series 01. The plan
was to produce 140 units. Due at the beginning of World War II and the
conversion of production to "war"products, only 60 locomotives were
completed.

This locomotive was attached to a unit of type 2'2'T34 tender, which was
streamlined on delivery. The products manufactured by the companies
Borsig, Krupp and Krauss-Maffei vehicles were covered with a streamlined
motor closed or recessed apron. The vehicles had the numbers 03
1001-1022, 1903
1043-1060 and 1073-1092 03.

After the war, 45 locomotives were in Germany. 26 stayed with the German
railway and 19went to the German State Railway in the late GDR. Nine
other locomotives came to the Polish State Railways PKP (Pm3). A machine
(03 1092) had to be withdrawn in 1944 because of war damage.

In April 1933, representatives from Henschel and the coach firm of
Wegmann & Co. handed a Study Into A High-Speed Train (Studie über einen
schnellfahrenden Dampfzug) to the general manager of the Deutsche
Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft, Julius Dorpmüller.
On 10 January 1934, when the Reichsbahn locomotive expert, Friedrich
Fuchs, met the representatives of Henschel and Wegmann, he confronted
them however with a proposal for a train with four eight-wheeled coaches
instead of the two-coach train. To meet this new requirement, Henschel
designed a 4-6-4 tank engine and presented the resulting project study
report on 27 March 1934 to the Reichsbahn head office. On 28 August, the
Reichsbahn officially contracted Henschel and Wegmann to build the
train. The engine was handed over on 31 May 1935. She was cleared for a
top speed of 175 km/h which, with her 2.3 metre diameter driving wheels,
was easily attained. In scheduled services the engine ran with a
streamlined train, but only at speeds up to 160 km/h. The tapered water
tanks gave both driver and fireman a good all-round view of the line and
the streamlined shell, officially called a Blechmantel, covered the
driving gear fully. Shortly after construction had begun on locomotive
61 001, a variant - number 61 002 - was planned, and built in 1939.
Locomotive 61 002 was give a three-axle trailing bogie, a third cylinder
and larger coal and water tanks, otherwise the design and the components
were the same as her predecessor. It also had smoke deflectors above on
the chimney, as were also fitted to the streamlined locomotives of DRG
Classes 01.10 and 03.10. In May the first factory trial runs were
carried out and the locomotive was transferred on 12 June 1939 to the
locomotive depot (Bahnbetriebswerk) of Berlin-Grunewald

When the Deutsche Bundesbahn was founded in 1949 they have at their's
disposal 54 steam engines of the series BR 01.10. The need for express
train locomotives was high at that moment. Only the 01 1067 was
immediately taken out of service because of extensive damage. The DB
removed all streamline plates in 1949. The streamline plates had no
advantage anymore, and the driving wheels were hardly accessible for
maintenance staff. Moreover the streamline plates were making the steam
engines more heavier and there were not much railway lines where they
could run more than 130 km/h, considering the longer braking way and
block sections for enough safety measures.

The steam engines were rebuilt and the streamline plates were removed
and the locomotives got "Witte" smoke deflectors. In this new state the
steam engines were hardly distinguished from the other BR 01 steam
engines. You could recognise the BR 01.10 when you look to the water
heater which is located under the door of the smoke box.

With the introduction of the new series with the DB scheme in 1968 the
locomotives of the German railways were classified for 094-Series.
The German railways in the DDR were classified in 1970 in the Series

In addition to the heavy goods locomotives, they were also deployed for
a few steep sections, like Suhl-Schleusingen, Boppard-simmering,
Dillenburg-wishers, Ilmenau-Schleusingen, Erkrath high Dahl and
Rastatt-Freudenstadt . For this purpose, the machines were equipped with
a Riggenbach counter-pressure brake. Thus, these lines didn't need the
expensive, time consuming operation for cogwheel.

the Class 80, a relatively economical and simple locomotive class, it
was hoped that the cost of shunting duties would come down.

After they had been on duty, prior to the Second World War, primarily in
the area of Leipzig (including the shunting of post vans) and Cologne,
22 units went into the DR in East Germany, post-1945, and 17 to the

much for locomotives of Series AD, ADH, and E. The locomotive Esslingen

The first locomotives of the K.Sächs.Sts.EB were sophisticated types of

These designs were used on the main routes wich were relatively long
and, in 1870 there were 2'B type locomotives (VIIIb1) in use. On the
side lines and shunting had the B-links prevail. Since the early 1890s,
the locomotives were purchased with three coupled axles.
From that moment more locomotives to the various applications (freight
and passenger trains) were made suitable. The other line profiles (flat

The Wannseebahn runs largely parallel to the Stamm Railway between
Berlin and Potsdam, with its opening in 1838 the first railway in
Prussia. On 1 July 1874, the so-called Alte Wannseebahn in use, a
suburbanline which starts in Zehlendorfand after the villa districts
Nikolassee and Wannsee crossed to connect back to the mainline with the
Griebnitzsee. The old Wannseebahn was the first railway in Berlin
exclusively for suburban trains built.In the 1880s was the Stamm Bahn
partly lifted, allowing level crossings be removed. At the same time,
parallel and between teh mainline a separate pair of tracks exclusively
for suburban trains whre layed. This Neue Wannseebahn came into
operation on 1 October 1891 and was the first of its kind in Germany.
There was a special reduced rate for city introduced.
The Berlin Potsdamer Bahnhof, terminus of the railway Stammbahn, had
meanwhile become the largest hub of local trains in the German capital
developed. In order to increase capacity was on the west side the
Wannseebahnhof built where the suburb trains Wannseebahn 1891 used as
end station. The actual Potsdamer Bahnhof was henceforth destined for
long-distance traffic. Between 1900 and 1902 the Wannseebahn the first
pilot plant in Berlin with electric drive (750 V DC) instead. The city
service would be another three decades dominated by steam trains

After the municipal transport company BVG in 1984 overtook the western
part of the Berlin S-Bahn, they decided re-employ the Wannseebahn again.
After extensive work on the neglected line where on 1 February 1985 for
the first time S-Bahn trains riding between Potsdamer Platz and Wannsee.
After the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the trains went back through
the historical center of former East Berlin to the north of the city. In
1992, finally the classical connection Wannsee - Oranienburg was
restored.
